RT fairing paint stand support
« on: February 04, 2019, 10:31:08 AM »
For painting an RT fairing, does anyone have suggestions on how to support or hang it for painting?
I used a couple of trash cans upside down on a cart, but I'm not sure if that was giving that good of a spray pattern on the long sides that end up being vertical with this setup.

I picked up a lazy susan bearing at home depot and mounted it to a table.  A couple pieces of scrap wood attached the fairing to the bearing.  Spins easily and was quite stable.
